The Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) DIRD Report Research ( The Black Vault )

 

Investigation Status: Ongoing – Last Updated 2/17/2021

This page will continue to be updated as additional DIRD reports are released. Keep checking back as this page morphs throughout the next couple weeks, months and maybe even years. Make sure you also check out the To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science, Tom Delonge, and the Secret DoD UFO Research Program page for additional information and my investigation into the AATIP program as a whole.

Background

In July of 2018, Mr. George Knapp released a leaked version of the 38 reports created under The Aerospace Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP). On this, were various, highly scientific and technical reports, by various authors, regarding fusion, advanced propulsion etc. The exact role they played in the AATIP program, is unclear.

On January 16, 2019, Mr. Nick Pope, formerly of the U.K.’s Ministry of Defence (MOD) who ran the “UFO Desk” there, received a similar list of reports, but from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)’s Office of Corporate Communications. At the same time, multiple FOIA requesters, including myself, were sent via postal mail, responses to various requests of the same.

This was my release, sent to me by the DIA, dated January 16, 2019:

 

 

 

There is some confusion on why the lists are different, which to the date of updating this page, that has been unaddressed.

Over the years, I spent countless hours requesting and collecting various scientific reports and research programs. I have taken time to reference my own archive, along with various resources, to cross reference the list of 38 reports to see what is available publicly, what is related and what is of greater interest to get released, as there is nothing in the public domain.

Below, you will find that research. The original numbered list are the AATIP reports. Below that, you will find additional information about the report, author, university, company etc. where available.

 Thermonuclear Micro-Bomb Rocket Propulsion [98 Pages, 4.7MB]  – The report describes an advanced nuclear rocket propulsion system based on a chain of exploding thermonuclear micro-bombs ignited in front of a concave magnetic reflector open at one side. It is shown that for such a propulsion system to work with ideally high efficiency the following conditions have to be satisfied: the thermonuclear material for the micro-bombs has to be a stoichiometric mixture of He3 and D in solid or liquid form, and the ignition of the micro-bombs has to be accomplished by an intense relativistic electron beam.

4. Space Access, Dr. P. Czysz, HyperTech

Report Status: Currently Unreleased

Additional Information about the Author

Dr. Paul Czysz is a Professor of Aeronautical Engineering at Parks College in St. Louis. He spent 8 years in the Air Force at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, and another 30 years working for McDonnell Douglas in the field of exotic technologies. While at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, he was involved in tracking UFOs over Missouri, Ohio and Michigan. These UFOs were seen by many people: military, local police, and civilians, and were clocked at speeds around 20,000 MPH as they performed unusual silent maneuvers. Dr Czysz spent more than half his career at McDonnell-Douglas working on classified and compartmentalized projects, and testifies to the processes involved in maintaining secrecy on these projects. He warns against the human tendency to make every new technology into a weapon, pointing out that our weaponization of space does not address the threat of earth terrorists, and the idea of using these weapons against extraterrestrial targets would be suicidal.

He was a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2000. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) and Optical Society of America (OSA). Professor Shvets is one of the pioneers in the emerging field of plasmonic metamaterials, especially in the infrared part of the spectrum. He and his colleagues were the first to experimentally implementing the concept of the Infrared Perfect Lens based on polaritonic materials (SiC), and the first to experimentally investigate optical properties of the so-called hyperbolic metamaterials that enable the propagation of sub-diffraction light waves. His most recent work deals with the applications of metamaterials and plasmonics to infrared light generation and harvesting, concentrated solar energy and thermo-photovoltaic systems, biosensing and molecular fingerprinting of proteins and live cells using metamaterial arrays, optical imaging with sub-diffraction resolution using nanoparticle labels, photonic topological insulators, graphene-based metamaterials, and electron beam-driven metamaterials. He is particularly interested in the integration of metamaterials and metasurfaces with various applications-specific platforms such as microfluidics, and in developing metamaterials-inspired devices that utilize non-traditional active, nonlinear, and low-loss materials such as graphene, quantum dots, silicon, and silicon carbide. Prof. Shvets is also a leader in the fields of advanced accelerator science and theoretical laser-plasma interactions, with specific emphasis on laser-plasma accelerators. His signature accomplishments include the inventions of the parametric laser compression in plasmas, of the electron self-injection into evolving plasma “bubbles”, and of the synergistic laser-wakefield and direct-laser acceleration in the plasma bubble regime.”

 Experimental demonstration of the microscopic origin of circular dichroism in two-dimensional metamaterials [8 Pages, 2MB] – Optical activity and circular dichroism are fascinating physical phenomena originating from the interaction of light with chiral molecules or other nano objects lacking mirror symmetries in three-dimensional (3D) space. While chiral optical properties are weak in most of naturally occurring materials, they can be engineered and significantly enhanced in synthetic optical media known as chiral metamaterials, where the spatial symmetry of their building blocks is broken on a nanoscale. Although originally discovered in 3D structures, circular dichroism can also emerge in a two-dimensional (2D) metasurface. The origin of the resulting circular dichroism is rather subtle, and is related to non-radiative (Ohmic) dissipation of the constituent metamolecules. Because such dissipation occurs on a nanoscale, this effect has never been experimentally probed and visualized. Using a suite of recently developed nanoscale-measurement tools, we establish that the circular dichroism in a nanostructured metasurface occurs due to handedness-dependent Ohmic heating.
